Barbro Ulén

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

• Agriculture
• Ecology
• Fertilizer

Her scientific interests lie mostly in Soil water, Leaching, Hydrology, Agronomy and Surface runoff. Barbro Ulén specializes in Soil water, namely Topsoil. Her Leaching study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Soil classification and Eutrophication.

Her study in the field of Drainage and Wetland also crosses realms of Macropore. Her studies in Agronomy integrate themes in fields like Soil type and Loam. Her Surface runoff research integrates issues from Soil science and Tillage.

Her most cited work include:

• Mitigation options to reduce phosphorus losses from the agricultural sector and improve surface water quality: a review. (208 citations)
• Agriculture as a phosphorus source for eutrophication in the north‐west European countries, Norway, Sweden, United Kingdom and Ireland: a review (166 citations)
• Future agriculture with minimized phosphorus losses to waters: Research needs and direction (139 citations)

What are the main themes of her work throughout her whole career to date?

Her main research concerns Soil water, Leaching, Agronomy, Nutrient and Hydrology. Barbro Ulén has included themes like Environmental chemistry and Surface runoff in her Soil water study. Her Leaching study combines topics in areas such as Leachate, Water quality, Crop rotation, Topsoil and Drainage.

Her Water quality research incorporates themes from Soil texture, Agriculture and Eutrophication. Barbro Ulén has researched Agronomy in several fields, including Loam and Catch crop. Her Nutrient study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Arable land, Drainage basin, Suspended solids, Pollution and Grazing.

She most often published in these fields:

• Soil water (38.84%)
• Leaching (38.84%)
• Agronomy (37.19%)

In recent papers she was focusing on the following fields of study:

Her primary areas of investigation include Soil water, Leaching, Agronomy, Soil science and Hydrology. Her research integrates issues of Environmental chemistry, Drainage system and Erosion in her study of Soil water. Her biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Leaching model and Drainage.

Her Agronomy study combines topics in areas such as Soil test, Crop rotation and Arable land. Her work in Soil science addresses issues such as Tillage, which are connected to fields such as Plough. Her research investigates the connection with Nutrient and areas like Surface runoff which intersect with concerns in Topsoil.

Between 2015 and 2021, her most popular works were:

• The ability of cover crops to reduce nitrogen and phosphorus losses from arable land in southern Scandinavia and Finland (36 citations)
• Evolution of phosphorus speciation with depth in an agricultural soil profile (29 citations)
• Use of a flashiness index to predict phosphorus losses from subsurface drains on a Swedish farm with clay soils (13 citations)

In her most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

• Agriculture
• Ecology
• Erosion

Nutrient, Topsoil, Animal science, Soil water and Leaching are her primary areas of study. Her Nutrient research includes elements of Landscape architecture and Sustainable agriculture. Her Topsoil research includes themes of Suspended solids, Seasonality, Constructed wetland, Turbidity and Nitrate.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Surface runoff and Drainage in addition to Animal science. She has included themes like Perennial plant, Cover crop, Red Clover, Agronomy and Arable land in her Soil water study. Her Leaching research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Hydrology and Crop rotation.
